Had this for a bit now, but play this guy at work. We either draw or I scrap a 1-0 win.

Just wanna know some good tricks, ball control moves, scoring from free kicks, hits and tips really so I can thrash him at it for good

thanks

For free kicks I used to mess around with all the extra controls you get for dip, swerve, etc but never used to score. Now I just get the power bar upto 1/2 way (just under if just outside the box, and obviously just over if a little further away) and just let it go. I find that I now force the keeper into a save or score 9 times out 10.

When playing against other people, its useful to have a player like Ronaldinho who is difficult to knock off the ball and use him to simply run past people (also using R2 for close control) but this is almost impossible against the CPU.

I also like to play with AC Milan, start from the keeper, pass out right to Cafu and run forwards till I meet an opposing player then pass squarely all the way across to Maldini, this gives him a lot of room and the chance to use through ball to Gilardinho, then cross the ball and hope for the best lol.

cool nice one, R2 for close ball control then.

Yep as far as I can remember (I'm playing on Xbox)

use the 1-2 alot and minimise the use of dash (r1) as it's easy to lose the ball...master the sidestep and play good wide player and don't use the cross button instead sidestep round the defender and play a square pass across the 18yd box..

 

[Jay]

whats the side step button?

square and pass together does the heal toe drag
